Former US President Donald Trump wants a martial arts league exclusively for migrants. Trump spoke again about migration at the US-Mexico border during campaign appearances in Philadelphia and Washington on Saturday, describing the incoming men as tough and tough. That is why he suggested to his friend Dana White, the president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, that he recruit them for a new version of the sport.
“Why don’t you start a migrant league?” he asked White. “And then you let the champion of your league, the best fighters in the world, fight against the champion of the migrants.” He believed the migrant could win because they were so tough. “He didn’t particularly like that idea,” Trump said, describing White’s reaction. In the UFC, fighters compete against each other in mixed martial arts, a full-contact combat sport in which punching and kicking is allowed.
US President Joe Biden’s campaign team said it was fitting for convicted criminal Trump to make threats against migrants. “Trump’s incoherent, disturbing tirade showed voters in his own words that he is a threat to our freedoms and too dangerous to be allowed anywhere near the White House again,” said team spokeswoman Sarafina Chitika.
